Collegiate Week, Glorietta, New Mexico

This Friday, I am leaving Lubbock one last time before students start coming back for the fall semester. I will be spending the week in Glorietta, New Mexico at the annual conference for college students put on by LifeWay called Collegiate Week. I’ve got a pretty extensive list of why I’m so excited about going to Glorietta….here it is:

• I’ll be spending the week with Pearl Merchant…can it get any better than that?
• David Platt will be leading the evening sessions as well as leading us in “Secret Church” Tuesday night (D.P. is the pastor of The Church at Brook Hills)
• There will be somewhere around 1500 college students there!
• I love mountains
• I love cafeteria food….what? (It’s true)
• Michael Kelley will be leading the morning sessions (he’s a blogger by the way)
• Have you seen Glorietta?!?! (I’ll make sure I send you some pictures)
• Some magician guy is going to be there Thursday night
• They have trees there…big trees
• The Bobcat Bite
• My old college campus minister will be there
• I’m taking a good book to read…and remember, readers are leaders!

Those were listed in no particular order (some of you were wondering, I know).

There’s no real purpose for this blog post, other than making sure you all know how much MORE fun I’ll be having next week than you.
